I was wondering if maybe there is an sql command used to monitor the server health or do you have to check for the health manually?

Truely said. The health checkup is a big exercise and should involve all possible angles to indentify the performance issues. Some most common mistakes hit the performance in long run and we never realise that.

Experts can point to those aeras during the Health Checkup process.
